O'sha Freeman, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm O'sha!

Putting your mental health first is a bold step in discovering the person that you want to be. As you start your therapy journey, allow me to assist you in navigating the challenges of life. I specialize in working with individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and life transitions.

My focus

I work with individuals managing anxiety, depression, life transitions, self-esteem concerns, and building healthy relationships. Together, we will craft a growth plan that feels realistic and attainable.

My approach

I use cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical-behavioral therapy (DBT), and narrative therapy to help you identify unhelpful patterns and to reclaim the story of your life. This approach is interactive and provides coping strategies to allow you to feel more in control of your emotions and behaviors.

My communication style

I prioritize clear and direct communication to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I utilize active listening while staying calm and leave room for empathy and useful reflection during our time together.

My journey to mental healthcare

I had the opportunity to work with numerous populations, from children to families, young adults, couples, and individuals. This experience showed me the powerful role therapy can play in recovery and solidified my commitment to grow and develop my skills. I’m driven by the fundamental belief that everyone has the potential for change.

My goals for you

Together we'll set goals that matter to you and how you would like to navigate through this process. If your goals evolve as we work together, I will remain flexible to allow your treatment to evolve as well.

Our first session

Our first session will be an opportunity for us to build rapport and get to know one another. I'll ask you questions about your background and what brings you to therapy. It's completely normal to feel nervous, and I'm here to guide you through each step with patience.
